RYZE Mushroom Overnight Oats + Protein Review

Everybody’s talking about mushroom coffee, but I’m here to get the conversation started about mushroom overnight oats, because they are SO good! And if you read my RZYE mushroom coffee review, you’ll know I’m honest about how things taste (the coffee is a bit shroomy) and I would not sugarcoat it if these oats tasted weird.

But they taste amazing! Like, better than my usual oats go-to, which is Quaker Oats Instant Oatmeal in Maple Brown Sugar. Plus, RYZE Overnight Oats + Protein has less sugar and more protein, and of course- mushrooms.

The flavor is cinnamon and vanilla and it tastes very light and natural- not overly sweet and not one bit mushroomy even though it’s got a blend of six different mushrooms.

A 76g packet of RYZE Mushroom Overnight Oats contains approximately 290 calories, 4.5g of total fat (1g saturated fat), 42g of total carbohydrates (8g fiber), 8g of sugars, and 20g of protein. Plus, an organic 6-mushroom blend, consisting of Cordyceps, Reishi, King Trumpet, Shiitake, Lion’s Mane, and Turkey Tail.

The first time I tried the oats, I did a video to record my total honest reaction. I didn’t think I was going to like it!

Below is the Instagram Reel showing me making and trying the oats, and being a bit surprised at the taste.

Nutritional Benefits of Eating Oats Daily

Oats may look simple, but they deliver serious nutritional benefits. Rich in beta-glucan, a soluble fiber known for lowering LDL cholesterol and supporting gut health, oats help keep you full longer and promote more stable blood sugar levels.

Lowering the LDL’s is a goal of mine after my last bloodwork showed higher levels than normal and high cholesterol! eeek! So, I had to cut back on the morning bacon and sausage and find a healthier way to start my day.

Plus, I’ve found I stay fuller, longer when eating RYZE Mushroom Overnight Oats for breakfast because the complex carbohydrates in oats provide a slow, steady release of energy.

Another bonus- oats offer a solid dose of essential minerals like magnesium, manganese, and phosphorus, all of which support metabolism, heart health, and immune function.

Meet the Mushrooms: Ryze’s 6-Blend Breakdown

Ryze doesn’t stop at good oats. Their overnight oats feature an organic blend of six functional mushrooms, each with unique perks:

  • Cordyceps: Known for boosting endurance, oxygen flow, and energy—think of it as your caffeine-free workout buddy.
  • Reishi: The chill-out champ. Reishi supports stress reduction, immune health, and sleep regulation.
  • King Trumpet: Antioxidant-rich and known for promoting bone and cardiovascular health.
  • Shiitake: More than just tasty stir-fry filler—Shiitake mushrooms support immune function and contain compounds that may help regulate cholesterol.
  • Lion’s Mane: Beloved by biohackers for its potential to support cognitive function, focus, and nerve regeneration.
  • Turkey Tail: A powerhouse for gut health and immune support, thanks to its high concentration of polysaccharide peptides.

Together, this mix works like a wellness team: one’s handling your brain, another your gut, one’s chill, one’s on energy duty—and somehow, they all get along.

How to Make RYZE Mushroom Overnight Oats

Making RYZE Mushroom Overnight Oats is super simple! Your first order comes with a great shaker for mixing and drinking your oats.

  1. Pour 8 oz, (1 cup) of milk or milk alternative into the shaker
  2. Pour in one bag of RYZE Mushroom Overnight Oats
  3. Give it a little shake and let it sit in the fridge overnight
  4. Give it a good shake the next morning and drink it. So easy!

You can also make it in a bowl with half the milk, if you want to eat it with a spoon. Or heat it in the microwave if you want traditional hot oats.

How to Level-Up Your Overnight Oats

I like the oats just the way they are, but I’ve been looking into spicing things up because I figure I might get bored of the same flavor every day.

Below are some ideas I am looking forward to trying:

  • Swirl in flavor: Add a spoonful of almond butter, tahini, or cashew cream for extra richness. You can add a drizzle of maple syrup or honey, but I think it is sweet enough already.
  • Add in different textures: Sprinkle with hemp seeds, cacao nibs, chopped nuts, or toasted coconut flakes.
  • Go fruity: I have actually been having it with a side of blueberries and raspberries but haven’t mixed it in the oats yet.
  • Amp the protein: Stir in a scoop of collagen peptides, Greek yogurt, or chia seeds for more staying power.

The Bottom Line

Ryze Mushroom Overnight Oats combines the slow-burn benefits of oats with the brain, gut, and immune support of six powerful mushrooms. And besides that, it’s delicious!

I totally recommend trying it if you are looking for a healthy way to start your day, with the added bonus of mushroom power. My affiliate link below will save you 15% off your order. I only join affiliate programs for products I actually like and use myself! And I’m all about these oats.
